Some people are actually ignorant to say that the soldiers get long term benefits. The government goes out of their way to deny veteran's benefits every day. I'm a veteran that's been denied benefits for almost a decade now. If you have some job, and you are compairing your pay to a low rate military mechanic or something then you are not being paid enough and should get another job that doesn't involve taking over someone's country.

Outsourcing. Now you know how working class American citizens feel, jobs to China, India, H1b visa fraud jobs, illegal and legal aliens allow to flood into r county. I hope u and yours do something about it. Use your training. Read the Declaration of Independence, and the Constitution; carry it with u. We r being made into a 3rd world country and we r being made into a 3rd world people; so that the rich can get filthy rich.

@NolanMGI Thank our lovely ex- vice president Dick Cheney for that.

This is so true....contractors get hired from the U.S. with these companies take the jobs of soldiers and get paid atleast double what the soldier would make. I too encountered civillians over here that make double what I do and all they do is write down names for who is using what computer and that kind of garbage. Or the civillian that manages locals that are hired to pump fuel into trucks, really?

@badattitude77769 Aclu has one of several articles, check out my other comments about how the usa and britain sold saddam weapons of mass destruction, thousands of articles out there. War is a game for the rich.

General Smedley Butler put out a book called: War is a Racket. Peace. Jeremy Scahill is on many videos, one of his books is called: Blackwater. Look at the list of the members of knights of Malta. Whew!

Thank you for the respect.

I was not aware that a million United States citizens are on the no fly list. Do you have a source on that.

What do you mean by "Everyone is a terrorist except for those that profit."

[badattitude77769]

@usindependent50 It is good to hear that! Did you know that there are about one million Americans on the no fly list? Everyone is a terrorist except for those that profit. I respect your service.

Through two tours in Iraq I can assure you that as long as the military is concerned we have had the best interests of Iraq and its people. To say the only reason for this war is profit is disrespectful to the sacrifice of all those in uniform who have fought for and with the Iraqis. Its always amazing that the only people doing so are the ones who haven't been to that amazing country. I'm glad I went to help those people live where they dont have to worry about being killed for speaking out.

@19therealone Your almost comical.

[trashedscattered]

@Relaxed1ne No your not wrong. Your fucking right. I've heard this before form other people, but above all, isn't every soldier a rifleman before they are anything else?

[Relaxed1ne]

@19therealone wy r u making this out be a pissing match about someones MOS. with out mechanics u could even get to ur mission. go infantry or go the fuck home. the infantry wouldn't last a week with out supplies and vehicles. i'm wrong?

[19therealone]

Theres two types of soldiers, ones who join to SERVE their country. ..and ones that join to FIGHT for their country. ..I have every respect for all you non-infantry people..but theirs only one color that should stand out on your uniform and it should be BLUE. This fucking faggot right here is 100% poag..and has NEVER put his life on the line to the degree that WE do. ..all of you poag fucks are the same, act the same, look the same, say the same. Go Infantry, or go the fuck home.
